- Summary
- This textbook gives students of neuroscience, psychology, and related subjects a thorough introduction to this important topic and a foundation for future study. Key concepts are explained clearly and, by bridging the gap between basic and clinical sciences, the book provides a new perspective on brain function and brain disorders. Its unique approach means that it will give researchers new insights into their subject, as well as acting as a concise review and reference text.
